My 1986 Toyota Corolla... I am going to miss her... On Thursday, September 6, 2007, her engine gave out. One of her connecting rods was broken... It is the car equivalent to massive heart failure. I don't know what to do... she's been with me in good times and bad, seen my hopes and dreams... I can truly say I loved my Corolla. She is still at the shop, waiting for the slim chance my mechanic can find a new motor, of any type, that will fit. She needs a 4AC or a 4AG from an AE86 Corolla... and the engines just aren't available... I've searched on my own, and found a carburettor manifold that will fit a 4AG, but they haven't found an engine. I am absolutely devastated right now... I had planned out every step of the car's future... I am actually crying as I write this...
I remember how much fun we had... I love you, and this is really painful... But I guess I have to say goodbye. I wish the world that I could keep you...
She, she is my baby... and I'm going to lose her... My only hope for the car, strangely enough, is to give up all hope. My belief that this will help is not unfounded... Two and a half years ago, while I was searching for her, I gave up on finding one... Three hours after I gave up, my close friend, Samir Farukh called me, and said he had found her! I hope that fate will smile the same way twice... But if it won't, Samir is coming to my rescue again... Since he has just bought a new Audi, he needs to sell his current one... And it looks like I am going to be the buyer. Saying goodbye forever is the hardest thing I've ever had to do. To all of my friends, I love all of you, and thank you for being there for me. To Samir, I owe you more than I can ever repay. You are clearly a cut above the rest, and I consider it one of my greatest honors being your friend.
I will always remember her
